Japan does not have states like Australia. It has prefectures instead. It has 47 prefecture and on the basis of geographical and historical background, these prefectures can be divided into eight regions: Hokkaido, Tohoku, Kanto, Chubu, Kinki, Chugoku, Shikoku, and Kyushu-Okinawa.
Each region has its own dialect, customs, and unique traditional culture. For example, the Kanto region, which includes Tokyo, and the Kansai region, which includes Osaka, offer striking contrasts in everything from the taste of food to the style of traditional performing arts, and people have fun comparing them.
Japan has a total population of 128 million.
Your task is to create a jigsaw puzzle of all of the prefectures. Find a map, cut it out like a jigsaw. Use different colours for the different prefectures and make sure you name each one. Try the Kids Japan website, the JapanesePage website or the Japan-guide website.
